Make This!!

I made broccoli cheese soup for the first time tonight. It was good! I substituted whipping cream for the half & half, 1/2 cup mozzarella instead of 2 cups cheddar cheese, one can of diced green chiles and added two handfuls of rotisserie chicken (chopped).

Make this! You won't be disappointed! After the soup had simmered for a while, I tested the broccoli & carrots to make sure they were tender. I removed 3/4 of the broccoli-carrot mix & pureed them in the food processor. Pureed broccoli & carrots. I put them back in the soup & simmered the mix for about 10 minutes more.
